jupyter-live-kernel

jupyter-live-kernel is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from graniet/kheish. It costs 70 tokens per session (1,589 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A live Jupyter kernel for running Python interactively while keeping variables and results between commands. Jupyter is an environment commonly used for data exploration, machine learning, and experiments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Exploring data, testing APIs, experimenting with machine-learning code, inspecting results, and iterating on complex Python tasks.
Why use it?
It lets you build up an investigation step by step and inspect intermediate results without restarting the Python session. This is useful when the work depends on earlier calculations or loaded data.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

jupyter-live-kernel scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 191 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Kheish Compatibility

This skill is repo-local and stays inactive until explicitly activated.

When the original instructions refer to legacy tool names, use these Kheish mappings:

  • terminal => bash
  • web_extract => web_fetch, plus web_search when discovery is needed
  • search_files => grep_search and glob_search
  • browser_* tools require a browser-capable surfaced tool or MCP; if none is available, use the closest available surface and say so explicitly

When the instructions mention local helper files, resolve them from ${KHEISH_SKILL_DIR}.

Jupyter Live Kernel (hamelnb)

Gives you a stateful Python REPL via a live Jupyter kernel. Variables persist across executions. Use this instead of execute_code when you need to build up state incrementally, explore APIs, inspect DataFrames, or iterate on complex code.

When to Use This vs Other Tools

Tool Use When
This skill Iterative exploration, state across steps, data science, ML, "let me try this and check"
execute_code One-shot scripts needing Kheish tool access (web_search, file ops). Stateless.
terminal Shell commands, builds, installs, git, process management

Rule of thumb: If you'd want a Jupyter notebook for the task, use this skill.

Prerequisites

  1. uv must be installed (check: which uv)
  2. JupyterLab must be installed: uv tool install jupyterlab
  3. A Jupyter server must be running (see Setup below)

Setup

This imported skill does not bundle the external hamelnb helper repository. Keep the helper checkout separate from Kheish and point SCRIPT at that checkout:

SCRIPT="$HOME/.agent-skills/hamelnb/skills/jupyter-live-kernel/scripts/jupyter_live_kernel.py"

If not cloned yet:

git clone https://github.com/hamelsmu/hamelnb.git "$HOME/.agent-skills/hamelnb"

Starting JupyterLab

Check if a server is already running:

uv run "$SCRIPT" servers

If no servers found, start one:

jupyter-lab --no-browser --port=8888 --notebook-dir=$HOME/notebooks \
  --IdentityProvider.token='' --ServerApp.password='' > /tmp/jupyter.log 2>&1 &
sleep 3

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

jupyter-live-kernel is a skill published in the GitHub repository graniet/kheish (227 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 70 tokens to every session and 1,589 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
